Administration Halts Election; Committee Plans Investigation
Last Ditch Plea Earns Reprieve
THREE WAIT—Presidential Candidates Roger Rosendahl, John Betinis and Gordon Strachan will find out who qualifies for the^runoffs for the ASSC presidency next week. The elections, scheduled for today, have been
postponed until May 6. Acting on a plea from disqualified presidential candidate Roger Rosendahl, the administration directed the Student Activities Committee, an administrative advisory board, to examine
the elections. The meeting is scheduled for 2 Monday. Mulvey White, vice president for student and alumni affairs, said, "the confusion and clouded atmosphere evident in the elections warrants examination."

major candidates will be contending there.
The four instructors expressed confidence that President Johnson will be the Democratic nominee and will select his own running-mate.
The presidential prospects
Gordan Strachan is not off the political hook yet. The decision by administrators to postpone elections planned for today removed Strachan’s hope of reprieve from the strain of campaigning.
The effects of a “coal raking” campaign and three hours sleep per night have produced a tired-looking Strachan.
“We’ve spent a lot of time money and effort and it’s still not going to be over in 24 hours,” he said yesterday.
Strachan’s voice and eyes reflected the physical drain of a campaign that has been marked by “petty politics and personal assassination.”
He’s Relieved Strachan overcame his unpolitical reaction of general fatigue and said he was “truly glad the administration is finally going to clear the air.”
At the hearing by the investigating committee presi dential candidates will be present.
“It‘s a good thing that we’ll finally have an opportunity to present our impressions of pclitics here at USC, Strachan said.
Speculating on the candidates for the final election, Strachan expressed his desire to run against Rosendahl.
Raps Betinis
“We are the only two who have a clear grasp of the problem,” he said.
“The students should have the opportunity to choose between our particular platforms. Most are convinced of the validity of student government. Roger and I gained over 80 per cent of the votes, therefore Betinis’ approach to the problem with some nebulous commission is not at all a valid solution."
Questions Disqualification
Strachan expressed dissatisfaction of devel o p m e n t s since Rosendahl's disqualifi-
ing a realistic job,” he said.
Strachan also attacked Be-tinis's lashing of administrators who reviewed Rosen-dahl's case. He was “appalled” that anyone who did not know them could question their integrity.
Reports Bias
By RICK MARKS Daily Trojan City Editor
The ASSC presidential runoff elections, scheduled for today, have been postponed until May 6 in an unusual interventive action by the administration.
Acting after a direct plea by disqualified ASSC presidential candidate Roger Rosendahl. the administration directed the Student Activities Committee, an administrative advisory board to examine the elections and make recommendations on its findings.
The committee's meeting is scheduled for 2 p.m. Monday.
The administrative decision was reached by President Topping; Dean of Students William H. McGrath; Mulvey White, vice president for student and alumni affairs; and Dean of Men Tom Hull.
Right to Appeal “Every student has the right of appeal.” White explained. “We must postpone the elections, therefore, to consider that appeal.”
The action by the administration was taken on the grounds that the “confusion and clouded atmosphere evident in the elections warrant administrative examination,” according to WTiite.
Impartial Investigation In making its decision for administrative inquiry, White said “a thorough, impartial investigation of the entire election will be conducted by the Student Activities Committee.”
The committee, headed by Dr. Newton S. Metfes-sel. associate professor of education, has the function of “evaluating and making recommendations concerning general student morale, student-administrative relationships, student-faculty relationships, students* opinions of academic offerings and ... all other attitudes and activities of students bearing a relationship to their life on the university campus.”
Committee Members Other committee members are Dr. Jerry Donohue, professor of chemistry; C. Wr. von Duering, assistant professor of fine arts; L. E. Ellfedt. professor of physical education; and Dr. A. C. Ingersoll, Dean of Engineering.
Also Dr. McGrath; Dr. James H. Myers, associate professor of business administration and acting head of the marketing department; and Dr. John D. Soule, professor of dentistry, are on the committee.

Strachan feels that he has been “misrepresented” news stories.

Although the Student Activities Committee is strictly an advisory board and its decisions are not binding on the administration, there have been no instances where a recommendation by the committee has not been accepted.
Three-way Runoff The committee will consider all aspects of the recent election, including the disqualification of Rosendahl, the inquiry into the disqualification procedings against Gordon Strachen and the possibility of a three-way runoff.
The administration, in handing the Student Activities Committee the election examination, stated positively that it is not acting by itself, but on an appeal by a student—Rosendahl.
